RE [XERTE]: Catching key combinations

[Julian Tenney]

Apparently there is no Key.ALT constant. I can't get Flash itself to respond to a key press when ALT is held down.

What are you trying to do?

Unfortunately, I can't get onKeyDown to fire if ALT is being held down.


================================================
Can't you wait for the key to go down and then do

If (Key.isDown(Key.ALT))
{
  //alt and the key are down
}

I'm trying to keep some alignment in a piece I'm porting from another tool.

Some of the buttons use ALT+someKey as shortcuts.
The onKeyDown event doesn't pick up ALT.
Any ALTernatives?

Dave
